That Pierre Paulin Jump Hour is unbelievable for the price.
I normally run from homages but that burgundy Baltany looks amazing.
That San Martin really is a pretty watch.... I too love a red dial - I was considering the San Martin dune textured one but I think that pottery glaze inspired one blows it out of the park. sooo tempted.
The red may be too much to resist
It is nice, but not all that dissimilar from their previous red dial with the red fume and desert wave texture (SN0129.) For me this new one would replicate (mostly) the look of what I already have. Now if they made this new one in a banging shade of blue...LOL
The honeycomb pattern lume on that Boderry isnt very good. I reviewed one a while back.
Yeah, a fun novelty more than anything. The lume on the Voyager I reviewed was also a bit meh
I have found the lume on the steeldive watches is amazing
@@onemorewatchplease Yeah, it is. They probably offer some of the best lume for the least amount of money.
I salute Chinese watchmakers for brave and fresh designs like Avocado watch even if myself I'd not be wearing it because I'm not a diver. But really nice design!
The first two San Martins you showed are just gorgeous.
I do love a top ten video, and yours are always great Kieron!
Some beauties here, particularly that red enamel San Martin. Stunning dial and the matching red date wheel is a nice touch.
Thanks for your hard work and fantastic content.
Hope all's well mate 👍
That San Martin SN0114 was interesting. It comes in a very interesting blue version….. I really like when the Asian manufacturers feature their own artistry which they do so well - like a lacquer dial! And the stamp on the back is also cool. Great video!
I agree. Best watch I've seen from San Martin 100%. I delve a bit more into the meaning behind it in my full review 👌
I got into scuba diving in the mid 90s, before I really got into watches, and this is what I was taught about water resistance ratings back then. If it says water resist but doesn't state a depth it's just splash resistant, but if it states a depth you can take it swimming. A lot of 50m watches will survive recreational diving, but 100m was considered the minimum rating you should use. Bear in mind though that this was back in the 90s when basically all the budget watches were made in Japan, and they had pretty high standards for quality, so if a big Japanese brand said their watch is good for 30m you could reliably assume it was okay to take it in the pool. For a Chinese watch in current year, water resistance claims don't mean much, but if it has a screw down crown and caseback, there's a solid chance it will survive whatever water you throw at it, assuming it doesn't have any QC issues.
Diving is a serious activity and watch is a safety measure. I wonder why people just swim or even more funny, take shower without taking watch off like they are competing or what. Watch is a precious mechanism, mechanical or quartz, so why abuse it underwater without a real need just because it has WP rating. Kinda another megapixel race or my car has more horsepower.
@@event4216 Personally I baby my watches, mainly because I don't want a collection of beat up watches. I have a beater watch I use for physical work, and as a rule I take my watch off when I shower. Still, I try to wear a watch that's appropriate for what I'm doing, so if I go for a swim, odds are the watch is going too.
@@Peter-z5f I don't insist world has to think like me but always nice to see minds alike!
Great Review K,the Sanda and the Merkur and Baltany really hit the sweet spot 4 me,Cant wait 4 your in-depth Reviews, C,West London.
I like the san martin avocado
Me too. A slice of fun 😉
I'm warming towards these proper affordable high spec watches. Great work TTT, I'm loving the San Martin red dial but love the desert sand red dial, even with the NH53
Boderry has upgraded their Sea Turtles to 200 meters (oddly, not reflected on their website yet). I have 2 and love them.
Amazing! You'd think they'd shout that from the rooftops!
@TopTierTicker They also upgraded their movement from a Miyota 8215 to the NH35, but no one seems to have noticed. It's just bizarre.
I noticed the NH35, as I mentioned it in the video. But not the water resistance.
0:37 cool shot bro!!! Thanks fot the video as always, by far the best watch reviewer on UA-cam. Much love from miami.
At $500+ aud for a san martin, i think i'll look at other microbrands.
Great video. Really good choices IMHO. There are other great looking Merkur vintage style dress watches. What do you think of them? Are they original design?
Most of them are actually! They do a good job at sprinkling in a touch of originality
As always, a great job!
The San Martin SN0144 is $500 bucks Canadian. Beautiful watch just not in my budget. The Addiesdive AD2055 caught my eye and almost bought it for $97 sadly cannot ship to Canada.
The local John Deere dealer needs to know about this list!
Great stuff there. Well presented.
I have that new green addiesdive, would really recomend it, the amount of watch you get for the price is insane and it beats so many others for the price like casio, lorus, seiko and so on. The green dial is stunning, logo is a lot better dan before and it fits perfectly. Because not many people know the Longines conquest it feels way less like wearing a homage to a rolex or something. I asked people how much they thought the watch was and most people said around 500 buks.
Really great video. Was waiting for your take on the Merkur tank dress watch. Glad to see you like it.
The SM red dial is absolutely stunning, i want one....🏴⌚🏴⌚
Some fantastic choices here Kieron, I couldn't have done it better myself! Keep up the good work!
When are they making a GREEN fumé!? I need one!
I have the same mint green addiesdive it's crazy how good it is for the price.
SN144 - sorry, for price asked I'd go for Citizen Tsuyosa with a dial darkening towards bezel or for titanium Forza with Eco Drive.
Need Sanda review. Especially in comparision to "old" Sanda tank
Interesting but where is the link for the Merkur Tank ?
Forgot to add it! I'll pop it in the description soon!
@@TopTierTicker Ok, it is working now. Thanks!
There are some great watches among this list.
That red dial on the first San Martin is definitely "inspired" by a Phoibos watch you actually reviewed Kieren. They just didn't make it a diver's.
İ like merkur tank. Will you review it?
yes, we want video on new Sanda
the sanda 1116 give 30m water resistance on their product specs, where did you get the 100m?
Just an editing error. It's hard to get everything perfect!
It happens. I always appreciate your videos tho, keep it up!
Couple of left-fielders in there. Nice
Cheers!
If only that Baltany day-date were 38-39mm…
Hopefully they come out with a second size!
Nice picks! Although I believe the first San Martin looks a lot like the Bulova Jet Star, so I do not know that design is THAT original.
It has no resemblance only in the color red.
People have some wacky claims when it comes to designs. You can't win 😂 appreciate the effort though @zacky6416
how well do those watches on a time grapher ?
Mixed mate. The San Martin I talked about first is coming in at just +2 seconds per day... But, it's a lucky dip!
You've knocked it put of the park with these selections Kieron, great job. My appetites well wetted (yeah hommages get you in the end😉, they're fun and you don't have to worry too much about them).
I'm not diving in with both feet but I'm going to have a dabble and see how it feels 😂
Love all the watches 🙂
Thanks mate!
400€ for a SM is a bit stiff
It is. Quality is insane though
How about doing a top ten quartz
Good idea. I'll make it soon!
I need at least 41 mm case diameter for my hand hence Ali express offers very limited choices for me.
No idea what Pierre Paulin were thinking by not aligning the loop of the hand with the hour and by doing so, the hour is obscured at the point that the hour changes 🙄
Soon you've got 💯.000 abonnents 😊
Appreciate that!
100m is dive capable, the ISO 6425 standard only calls for a minimum of 100m water resistance. Although I wouldn't trust most Chinese watch's water resistance claim to be honest.
How dare you call the SN045 ugly 😡
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder? 😂
@@TopTierTicker beauty is in the eye of the beer holder 🍺. By the way, just one F in reference. 😊
Sam Martin way overpriced
That’s why I prefer san martin instead
Bad luck if you don't like green dials...
Most of them have other colours available. I just like green 😂
This guy should not have used the word "stealing" on homage designs. If he is so clinical, he should have just refused to take these watches for free like it is an evil object or simply fold his channel dealing with reviewing these watches, making money off of this business. Don't sh*t at where you eat. I'm simply saying don't be a hipocrite.
🤦♂️
But its litterally stealing the Design, I personaly don't have a problem with it, and really like San Martin, but I don't see the problem with naming it what it is. Their Quality is incredible none the less.
The world has gone soft 😂😂😂
Cry harder
As long as the name or logo on the dial is different then everything is fair game, a good design by the original brand isn't always financially accessible to the masses....I personally have no issue with it....🏴⌚🏴⌚
Nah!! I just can't get past these AliExpress chinese unknown brands with wierd names and logos even though they offer great value and specs for the money! I stay under the 400$ mark when I buy watches and I prefer to walk around with a Seiko or a Citizen with less specs than looking down on my wrist and see a stupid snorkeling logo that reminds me that I'm kidding myself. That's how I see things after buying some of these watches and not proud in wearing them!
Snobbery , plain as day. Your loss , honestly!
@@serenityinside1Get your facts right buddy! Snobbery when I never payed my watches over 300$ and don't buy swiss made watches? Is that the definition of snobbery to you? Don't worry buddy, I have these junk Chinese AliExpress watch brands in my collection and quickly stopped wearing them because I realised nothing replaces brand reputation not even all the nice specs in the world. No loss there buddy, just your ignorance from your part in brand history and heritage. I bet the phone you're typing with is a well known brand, the car you're driving too, the kitchen oven, microwave, vacuum cleaner, clothes, pc, laptop, headphones... But no sweat, when somebody or a friend compliments you on your watch, you'll tell him: Oh, it is an Addiesdive! I'll tell him it's a Seiko. Let it be snobbery to you, I call it good sense!
So Chinese watches have great specs ,but are still junk , according to you, even the original design! Why , because they are Chinese, everything from China has to be junk ? The "R" word is a problem that people in the west are happy to embrace😅@@cougarbatterie
@@cougarbatterieeverybody has its own small world that they live in, my friends do not recognize barely any watch brands, if its not Rolex or Omega (for popcultural reasons probably) or, on the other hand, Casio, and mostly a G-Shock line. I pretty often wear one of Pagani Design chrono from Ali and I never expected how much attention will it get, for a cheap, chineese, quartz beater/everyday watch.
On the other hand, I love the history of watchmaking and I have some vintage Tudor, Omega or Bulova mechanical pieces. In my honest opinion there is a possibility to admire both some heritage, some undeniable charm of old watches, and the pure value for money, of course everything depends on how you treat them. Ali watches are not something to brag about, they really be a eye candy, you buy a watch for yourself, not for others.
We all share some dinosaur passion, in a world that od full of smartwatches, its great that people have different opinions and discuss them
Do not buy from Ali Express. Chinese copy watches. 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Boderry is a peice of junk no lume from the firts day and never hold's a nigth I'm not sure is a seiko mouvement inside ?
They are some of the cheapest watches on the market! You shouldn't expect insane quality. I've had good experiences with Boderry so far so I can't relate.
@@TopTierTicker I have 3 Boderry watches. I love all of them. They all keep his time and look nice. I'm wearing a titanium explorer today
For Ad2066 domed mineral glass will scratch very very easy , cause it's not same height as the bazel. Scratches from all sides . This is way I didn't buy the 2030 and watchdives quartz with brown 🟤 dial forgot the model
